RSMS Hour 3 | Actor Clifton Powell Doubles Down on Spike Lee Bad Business  

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/78a347aa-3282-4ac5-837c-a72300032082/clips/7b2a69ea-d874-4a2a-8478-b35b010335e2/transcript

This episode opens with a powerful blend of hard news and heartfelt community impact, as the Rickey Smiley Morning Show navigates breaking global developments while rallying listeners behind meaningful causes. The team highlights new reporting showing that the first six days of the U.S.–Iran war have already cost more than $11.3 billion, with Pentagon officials confirming that munitions alone exceeded $5.6 billion in the first 48 hours, signaling a conflict far more expensive than initially projected. Against this tense global backdrop, the show shifts into its annual St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital Radiothon, emphasizing how families battling childhood cancer never receive bills for treatment, travel, housing, or food — a mission supported by radiothons nationwide, including similar fundraising events in markets like Lafayette and Western New York. Testimonies from parents, doctors, and survivors underscore why listener support directly fuels medical breakthroughs and raises survival rates from 20% in 1962 to over 80% today.  

The conversation continues with special appearances— including leadership from Miles College, where President Bobbie Knight has guided the institution through major expansions and secured more than $101 million in external funding, elevating both student opportunities and national visibility for the HBCU. The episode closes on a celebratory note as Kandi Burruss beams with pride over her 6‑year‑old daughter, Blaze Tucker, winning first place in Atlanta’s Little Miss Pearl pageant, a moment widely shared on social media and covered by outlets like Essence. Between global conflict, community uplift, educational excellence, and joyful family victories, the show delivers a meaningful spectrum of stories that keep listeners informed, inspired, and connected.
